Desktop and Digital Publishing
Multilingual Desktop Publishing
SpanSource takes care of the complete reproduction of a document in the intended target languages. This involves not only translating the content but also working in the native authoring tool or tools to mirror the source page layout. From localizing images with text in Photoshop or Illustrator, to working with fonts size, kerning, page margins and line spacing in InDesign or Quark, localizing a document for print poses challenges related to text expansion, character encoding, bidirectionality, among others, that only an expert can handle.
SpanSource Desktop Publishers can work with most formatting applications and document types into multiple languages.
Online Publishing and Multimedia
When online publishing is involved, specs are different from print and SpanSource has the required expertise to produce web content and documentation meant for online publication. This includes working with markup files, such as html or xml, reproduction of animations from scratch, voiceover studio recording, subtitling, integration of course files with sound tracks and final QA testing.
